Who Was Abraham Lincoln?

This book was so perfect for my son’s report he had to write for school. It includes so much information and is perfect for his grade and age.

I love this series for my son. They are a quick easy read for him, but he absolutely loves them and read them multiple times. He just turned to eight years old and can get through them pretty quick usually and one or two seatings. They are very educational and get some curious to learn more which I love. Definitely highly recommend the series.

Great book! My 10 year old son thought that the book was easy to read and he learned a lot of things that we didn't know about Lincoln. I recommend it!

Great book about President Lincoln. Lots of fun facts about his life and a easy way to learn about him.

I wish I could write a review for the entire series! I bought these for my 4th/5th grader and had him read them before we went to Boston and New York this summer - we did 6 Cub Sout trails and read about Paul Revere, The Boston Tea Party, Washington, Jefferson, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, before going...we had to save Gettysburg and Lincoln for next summer though (though we did one of the Lincoln trails in DC 3 years ago). It involved him more in the hikes, he knew what he was seeing, and was able to make a connection and understanding better...which will help with American History in 5th grade this year and his attention deficiencies in school. We read every night as a part of the school reading program and these are perfect for him. The books have helped build his comprehension and improve his reading confidence since being diagnosed with dyslexia.

This book does a nice job of walking the reader through the life and times of Abraham Lincoln, noting he didn't succeed at everything he tried, but he kept trying. He saw why slavery was a challenging issue for his country, his time and all the people in it, and he sought a solution that abided by the law of the land, even as he helped work to improve the laws... and the solution.One of the things I particularly enjoyed was how this book pointed out the limited education available to so many at the time of Lincoln's childhood, and yet he understood if he could learn to read, then he could read about, and learn, anything.

I'm a 2nd grade teacher and my students love Who Was Books so much that I keep having to replace them in my classroom library!

Great book for kids! I got these for my local children's library from their wish list. The kids are excited about reading them.
